Oct. 6, 2009 -- French researchers on Tuesday said they had uncovered the biggest dinosaur footprints in the world, left by giant sauropods that may have weighed 40 tons or more.

An extraordinary track of footprints was found in April this year in the Jura plateau at Plagne, near the southeastern city of Lyon, by a pair of amateur fossil-hunters, the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) said in a press release.

Professional palaeontologists have since authenticated the find.

"According to the researchers' preliminary inspections, the footprints appear to be the biggest seen so far," the CNRS said.
